Why do we love solo travel?
We believe that solo travel is the best path for self-discovery. It allows you to explore on your own terms—no compromising on your must-see spots or skipping that quirky museum because someone else isn’t interested. You’ll feel empowered to make decisions that are truly your own, whether it’s choosing to relax at a café for a leisurely breakfast or deciding to wander off the beaten path to stumble upon a hidden gem.
Beyond the freedom of exploring at your own pace, solo travel expands your horizons by creating opportunities to connect with new people, from locals who can share their insider tips to fellow travelers you may meet on a tour or in your hotel who might become lifelong friends.
At Pack Up + Go, we believe solo travel isn’t just about your destination —it’s about embracing your independence and loving spending time with yourself. You might be surprised at how transformative—and fun—traveling alone can be. Let us plan your next adventure, and get ready to explore the world your way!
Don’t just take our word for it! Take it from these past solo travelers on why taking a Surprise Trip by yourself is totally worth it:
“Quick solo trips can be so relaxing, even meditative. You’re alone with your thoughts in a new environment. I visited a beach town in winter, so the whole town was quiet. I loved it.”
-Liz, took a Road Trip to Annapolis, MD
The most common Pack Up + Go Trips are 3 days, 2 nights, and we can plan trips up to 11 days, 10 nights long!
“Traveling alone allowed me to have the freedom and flexibility to do different activities at the time I wanted to do them. I think it allowed me to really take in the city I was visiting on a different level. I saw and heard things I wouldn't normally with a group. I learned that I am not afraid to go out and meet people on my own.”
-Megan, took a Plane Trip to Denver, CO
Pack Up + Go makes sure to send you to cities and sights we know to give you the chance to meet other people, try new things, and step outside your comfort zone!
“You have complete freedom to do whatever you want whenever you want, which is an incredible feeling. We all have different interests, wants, bucket lists, etc. so this is your time to have "the perfect day" filled with all your preferred activities. Read a book, go to the beach, wake up for sunrise, go to the museum, you name it you get to decide what you want to you. “
-Hayley, took a You Pick Trip in Los Angeles, CA
While Pack Up + Go is there to give you well-researched suggestions and recommendations, we still make sure you’re in control of your experience so you’ll have room to explore and grow as a traveler!
“I had the best time in Boston! My first solo trip and I can't believe I haven't done this sooner! Boston is a great walkable city where local businesses and people are supported. The food tour was one of my favorite things and I am so glad it was booked for me because it's not something I would have booked on my own!”
-Natalie, took a Plane Trip to Boston, MA
Solo Trips are a great way to find new passions, explore your hobbies, and learn more about yourself!
“Self + I are best friends. And that’s one reason we travel together because we don’t argue about where we want to go, or what we want to eat, or if we want to go back to the hotel early. And some people are really intimidated to be by themselves, especially for a woman to travel by herself. And I just don’t get that. Because, self and I have a great time, all the time! And I wish that other women could enjoy that experience and give themselves the opportunity to try and get out of their comfort zone!”
-Paige, took a Plane Trip to Philadelphia, PA
If you ask us, traveling solo is the best form of self-care.
Pack Up + Go gives you the confidence to take that trip you’ve always wanted to take.
